    245. Part 1: “But I don’t have a problem eating enough”

    If you've ever thought, "My problem isn't eating enough... it's that I eat TOO MUCH!" — this episode is for you! Overeating and eating enough are two very different things. And if you're struggling with overeating, learning how to properly fuel your body is actually your missing piece. In Part 1 of this series, I'm breaking down why you can be overfed but still underfueled, and why mastering this foundation is so important BEFORE jumping into another calorie deficit. We'll cover: • The difference between overeating and actually eating enough • Why you might be overeating even when you're trying to eat less • How food choices, meal timing, and your mindset are part of what makes eating enough successful • Why focusing on calories and macros alone is missing the bigger picture • How getting this foundation right sets you up to build muscle, decrease body fat, and actually sustain your results If you're already lifting weights but find yourself stuck in the cycle of restricting, overeating, and starting over, this episode will help you understand what your missing. If you want to look like you lift, it's not just about eating less. It's about learning how to fuel your body strategically.

    244. [Live Coaching] Fuel for Early Morning Workouts

    Do you need to eat before an early morning workout? And if so, what should you eat and how far in advance? In this week's Live Coaching episode, I'm sharing a conversation with a Create Your Shape client about how to properly fuel your morning workouts so you can lift heavier, train harder, and get more out of every session. We'll cover: Why training fasted might be holding back your performance and muscle growthWhat to eat before an early morning workout (especially if you don't have much of an appetite)How to time your pre- and post-workout mealsWhy certain carb sources are better suited for workout fuelingHow much protein and carbs to aim for around your trainingIf you're getting up early to lift weights, let's make sure you're getting the most out of that effort so you can actually look like you lift!

    243. From Looking Healthy to Looking Fit: Part 2

    I used to think showing up consistently and following a progressive overload program was enough. I was organized, disciplined, and committed - but I was still stuck looking healthy, not fit. It wasn't until I learned how to execute my training and nutrition with precision that everything changed. I realized the missing piece wasn't more effort - it was building systems, mastering execution, and working smarter. In this episode, I'm breaking down the final 5 shifts that took me from healthy to fit: intentional reps over just progressive overload, sustainable systems instead of short-term intensity, strategic nutrient timing, training to true failure, and prioritizing carbs for performance. These are the exact strategies I teach my Create Your Shape clients to build muscle and transform their physique. If you're already doing the work but want to take it to the next level, this episode will show you how to optimize your training and nutrition for real results.

    242. From Looking Healthy to Looking Fit: Part 1

    I used to think I was doing everything right, lifting consistently, tracking macros, eating protein, doing abs after every workout. But my body didn't reflect all that effort, and I couldn't figure out why. It wasn't until I learned the actual science behind building muscle and decreasing body fat that everything clicked. I realized I wasn't missing more action or willpower, I was missing the next level strategy and tools.  In this episode, I'm breaking down the first 5 shifts that took me from healthy to fit and now I help my clients through: having a real strategy, using phases instead of doing everything at once, eating enough first, choosing voluminous foods over protein-packed products, and training with intentional reps instead of just going through the motions. If you've been working hard but not seeing the results you want, this episode will show you what might be missing and how to actually move the needle.

    241. Sep'26 Q&A: Legs Won’t Grow, Best Pasta/Bread Brands, Pregnancy Macros

    Do I need to add MORE exercises to grow my legs? Are there preferred bread, pasta, or wrap brands? And how have my macros changed throughout pregnancy? I'm answering all three in this week’s Q&A episode and, as always, giving you the education behind the answers so you can make smarter decisions on your own. We'll cover: • What to look at BEFORE adding more training volume for stubborn legs • How much brands actually matter when choosing your everyday carb sources • When more specialized low-carb, high-protein, or high-fiber options might make sense • My specific macro allocation and why my calories have increased during pregnancy If you want to look like you lift without overcomplicating your nutrition and training, this one's for you.  Work with Jenny in Create Your Shape (Starts on April 26th) → https://jennythenutritionist.com/create-your-shape/ Book a Consultation with Jenny → https://calendly.com/jennythenutritionist/consultation Follow Jenny the Nutritionist on Instagram → @jennythenutritionist

    Welcome to the first Live Coaching episode! In these quick episodes, I’m pulling clips directly from my actual coaching calls so you can hear how I coach through real-life situations — and get the coaching for yourself. In this clip, I’m coaching a client with four kids who wants to make meals her whole family will eat while still hitting her macros. We cover: Why you don’t need a library of perfectly macro-friendly recipesHow to make simple swaps within the meals you’re already makingHow to think more “macro savvy” so you can adjust meals to fit your numbersMaking family dinners work for your goals without cooking a completely separate mealThis is for you if you feel like hitting your macros means eating different meals than your family or constantly searching for recipes that perfectly fit your numbers. The goal is to get macro savvy enough that you can make real-life meals work for you.

    239. From a Good to Great Shape

    You look good. You lift weights, eat pretty well, and generally look healthy. But there's still that nagging thought... "I told myself I’d create a bad ass shape one day. I know I’m capable, just haven’t gone all in yet. Am I running out of time to make this happen?" In this episode, we're talking about going from a good shape to a GREAT shape. We'll cover: • What actually separates a "good" shape from a "great" shape • Why so many already-fit women get stuck in the good-enough phase • Whether you're actually running out of time in your 30s, 40s, and 50s • Why simply lifting weights doesn't guarantee you'll build the shape you want • The advantage of starting now, even if your ultimate goal is next summer • How your results can compound so your shape gets better and better with age You can appreciate that you look good right now AND still want to look freaking great. If you've had that pull telling you you're capable of more, this episode is for you.
